i just got stumble upon. so incredible. already found out so much more about the world. including a new music artist called "Edward Sharpe and the magnetic zeros"



revamped myself this weekend.
I had Paz, Parkie and Nash come and visit me in Leeds for the weekend, and we had such an awesome time. We just chilled on the friday night, watched miranda and ate sweets, and then on saturday I showed the girls town until we met Nasher at the bus stop.
On saturday - this is the revamping i'm talking about - i dyed my hair an auburn-y colour and got my nose peirced. I'm so glad with how it turned out, i look quite different but i like it!
That night we went out to Halo, only us girls plus another few from Grant house. I must admit, i got very very drunk, but it was hilarious, however embarassing and painful the next morning! Parkie reminded me of saying how i was "Pierce-d bros-nose"
Ohh goodness, we made such fools of ourselves, but it really reminded me of the old days, one of the best nights out with them ever. Really made me realise that we really will be friends forver.

I'm excited to see Callum in reading in only 4 days time, it's going to be another lovely weekend i'm sure. I don't have a great deal of money, but if i don't eat much for lunch i can afford the month, just about!



Well, i've completely forgotten to write about the Otley run a couple of weekends ago. Oh man, it was so so so much fun, had a really good night. I was dressed as planned, as a Jellyfish, although i got mistaken for all sorts! I did the whole night on £20 which i though was so impressive considering i did 10 pubs plus Halo after, and still managed to get very drunk. I remembered the next morning dancing on the steps of the parkinson building to Grease's "summer lovin'". oh dear me.

It sounds very silly of me to be writing so much about getting drunk so much, doesn't put me in the best of lights! i won't be going out this week, bit short of money. Besides work is still being thrown at me regularly with different deadlines to reach, and work harder than i would have ever expected. I did however, do well in a piece of work for Genetics that me and some new course friends did as a group. I'm happy to have not only made friends, but worked with them to get 57%!

so in love.

It's been a fair while since i last blogged. About two weeks has gone by, with many events.

1) Callum came up to Leeds for the Valentine's weekend. It was so lovely to see him, really nice. It wasn't such an eventful weekend as the last, just chilled in my room, and tbhjust spent most the time lounging about in bed. lazy gits eh? He bought me a photo frame, which im going to fill up soon with all my favourite people, including him.

The friday night of that weekend I actually met callum in Nottingham where we surprised one of my best friends on her birthday. Her face was a sight and it went really well. Got to the perfect amount of tipsy on the night out, the level of drunk when you make a tiny bit of a fool of yourself, but feel basically fine the next morning. Okay so the picture is awful of everyone, but thought i should jazz up this post with some image.

2) I missed an essay deadline. real kick in the teeth, especially as it was because, initially the printers weren't working, and then the un count weekends as days that you didn't hand it in, even though the office is closed. Oh well, i'll face the 20% penalty, and however much it bugs to say, will have to learn from my mistake.

3) I made a costume for the otley run this saturday. It's really quite good, im quite impressed with my haberdashery. I sewed some ribbons onto a tutu to make a jellyfish outfit, and with my makeup and crazy coloured tight etc i should look the part!

4) Just wrote a job application to work at either old bar or the terrace. two restaurants/bars in the union. The chances of me getting the job are slim, but i hope i get it, it would be so perfect. I'll let you know how that one pans out.

5) I also found out today that i failed one of my exams, the ones i took in january. It really suprised and disappointed me, considering that when i came out i didn't feel that about it - actually thought i had done okay! The thing that really puzzles me is that i passed the lab exam that i though had gone horridly. strange. I'll just have to make sure i do better this summer in the retakes. Me and my course friend have decided to take this as a kick up the backside to get working more!

hmmm ive not been very well and today i missed a whole day of lectures and a lab. I think i need to motivate myself a bit better, i seem to be really lazy and not up for anything at the moment, so i need a rocket up the ass. I need to start researching for my essay on angina tonight, i'll begin with that, and maybe,depending on how tired i am, make notes on all the lectures ive missed since ive been back after christmas. I dunno, i'm just worried that if i don't snap myself into action soon im going to get behind with work. I've bought a diary and it seems so full of deadlines that it scares me a bit.

I had an awesome weekend though a few days ago. Callum came to visit on the friday night. It was a pain in the ass when the coach was delayed by about 2 hours. It turned out the coach broke down, and a replacement was sent, but then the replacement didn't have enough seats for everyone. Then some angry customer starts complaining to the driver, who then punches the customer and gets arrested. Could only happen on Megabus! So, he eventually gets to Bodington after being helped back on the bus by Marcus and Angus, bless them. It was so lovely to see him, i'd missed him so much that as soon as he opened my room door my heart went schizo. On the Saturday i took him into Leeds and showed him the city. Despite being bitter cold outside it was nice to show him the main shopping street with all the big brands (the really posh Victorian quarter). On Saturday night we went out to Halo, it was so much fun. We went with the girls downstairs who are really fun, and i get along with them, even though i don't talk to them that much. Me and Callie were a tad embarassing with our dancing and actually made a clearing around us on the dance floor. oh dear me! Then we woke up really late on Sunday and did nothing until the evening, when we went for a meal to Gourmet burger kitchen with all of our friends. It was so delicious, such a nice restuarant and we got vouchers that made it really cheap aswell! Then on monday we just laid in bed until like 3 o'clock. so lazy i felt like the grandparents from charlie and the chocolate factory ;) eventually we dragged ourselves out of the room and went to the student union to get lunch and i showed him the campus. He went home on Monday night. It was a bit painful, but i'm seeing him in just over a week for valentines anyway!
